christelsabine 1 #3 April 19, 2004 Somehow, this sounds familiar to me -- but i thought this was coming from another corner of the world, f.e. middle east or so? the inventors of terror, torture.. not absolutely new, but interesting. dudeist skydiver # 3105 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kennedy 0 #4 April 19, 2004 This is called psycological warfare, and it protects you to this very day. It is also very effective when practiced properly. These men were going to be executed one way or the other. What's the problem with scaring the living crap out of any who would emulate them?witty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

christelsabine 1 #8 April 19, 2004 Do not tell me shit about how this is called. IMHO, in your eyes it simply depends on who's got the power at first in using such proceedings. of course it will be in your side. you simply put yourself on same level like the ones, who would emulate this fine idea. or a little below? your comment(s) is/are showing a certain lack on something essential. find out by yourself what is missing. dudeist skydiver # 3105 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billvon 2,426 #9 April 19, 2004 I like the last line of this little fake tirade: "Where do we find another Black Jack Pershing?" We've got him in custody right now. I'm sure Hussein would be happy to help us kill Arabs in humiliating ways, supress dissent and rule Iraq with an iron fist; he seems to be much better at it than we are.

sdctlc 0 #16 April 19, 2004 QuoteI like the last line of this little fake tirade: Well I dont know where the article came from as it was sent to me via E-mail but I dont think it is known 100% either way if it is fake, the actions Pershing alledgedly took that is. According snopes.com onthe Pershing legend: Claim: General John J. Pershing effectively discouraged Muslim terrorists in the Philippines by killing them and burying their bodies with pigs. Status: Undetermined. Example: [Collected on the Internet, 2001] Good bad or ugly, just putting it out there as food for thought. I know some are in agreement for it and others are against it.. I just wanted to see peoples reactions..... Scott C."He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazy 0 #17 April 20, 2004 There is a thin line between Non-PC Thinking and plain racism. Besides, why imagine stories about horrors perpetrated by the Americans against the Muslims in the Philippines, when there are already way too many authentic horror stories there (i don't think that the American concentration camps were much fun for the Muslims).-- Come Skydive Asia Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sdctlc 0 #18 April 20, 2004 QuoteThere is a thin line between Non-PC Thinking and plain racism. Racism does not have to be from the big guy to the small guy. I see probably more racism comming from minority groups towards the preceved majority groups. What is the difference between what this article on Pershing implied and what terrorists are doing today. Not much and it seems to be affecting some of the countries involved in Iraq. This post was really intended to get some opinions out there. I figured that "Americans" would be more receptive to it and "non-Americans" would be more against it. that is the way the reality is today in the world today. When America was attacked they attacked back.... When other parts of the world have been subsquently attacked they threaten to and in some cases are pulling out. Against or for the issues regarding terrists today, you cant stop the ball rolling and have to dealk with the reality of what is going on today. Scott C."He who Hesitates Shall Inherit the Earth!"

crazy 0 #19 April 21, 2004 Quote What is the difference between what this article on Pershing implied and what terrorists are doing today. None, and that's precisely the reason why this anti-muslim rumor sucks so much. It rivals the worst anti-semitic or anti-american propaganda.
